The next couple of days were absolute hell. I spent all of my time sat by the hospital bed whilst she was in a coma. They couldn't use healing quirks on her because they need to use her energy to do it. Ironically, Aiko didn't have enough energy in her system to be healed until she woke up, and there was no garuntee she was even going to.

"Come on." I say angrily into the phone, which ends up going to voicemail again. "Ugh for fucks sake!" I throw my phone at the floor and then panic because I threw my phone at the floor and I hope it's not broken.

I go back into my routine of pacing around the hospital room, sitting down, standing up and getting a drink then going back to pacing.

"Hara." Akamine says as she walks back into the room. "Being stressed isn't going to fix anything."

"It's not like I can do anything else, is it? " I run my fingers through my hair as I sit down and slouch forward in my chair. Akamine hands me a chocolate bar and sits down in the chair next to me.

Neither of us have been to U.A since the attack on Hosu, which was three days ago. Nezu understood and let us both off, I honestly wish I was like Iida and could just go back into school after what's happen, but I can't bring myself to face everybody.

I've basically spent the past three days living in the hospital chair. Akamine's worse than me, she can't seem to stay still and just walks around the hospital, coming back here a couple of times every hour. I don't leave the room unless it's to go the bathroom or use the hospital facilities.

I didn't know what to do or how to act or what to say. Last time we were in hospital it was because I needed help. Now I'm in the waiting chair I don't actually know what to do.

I thought my sleep schedule was bad before but now I'm going off of pure worry alone. I'm scared to leave her in any way, shape or form.

Akamine stands up and walks out of the room again, just like I expected. She's the opposite, she can't stand being in here whilst I can't stand leaving.
I can't help but look at her. Sad memories of when I used to sing to comfort her fill my head.
"Short steps." I begin to sing, my voices is raspy and hollow. "Deep breaths. Every-everything is alright." The song is gaspy and my tears ruin it.

It's the very beginning of this amazing song which also appeared in chapter 12.

I'm exhausted and I can't continue. My bones ache and I've had a constant headache for the past day and a half. My skin feels weird, like it's off, like it's rotting. I'm covered in goosebumps but I'm not cold at all. Am I coming down with a fever or is it luck fucking with me because it knows it can't do anything and it's panicking?

Either way, it's uncomfortable.

Beep beep beep.

What? What's that? Where's that coming from? I look up around the room and I can't comprehend what it is at first.

The heart rate monitor.

"Aiko!" I run over to the bed. "Aiko! No! Come on! Shit!" I press my ear to her chest. The flat line certainly isn't lying to me.

I burst out of the room. "Help! Somebody help! The monitor.. It's.." Nurses run past me into the room and and I'm just spinning around, unable to process what's going on.

I go back into the room and a couple of doctors are around her.
"Clear!" One yells before slamming the defibrillator onto her chest. He does it a couple more times out of pure desperation. Then he stops.

He just stands there, looking at her body.
"Time of death.." I don't catch the rest. No. No no. She's not dead, she can't be. I promised I'd protect her. This isn't happening.

She's my sister. She's my fucking sister and she's gone.

"No!" I yell as I grab the doctor's arm. "You have to help her! Please no! She can't be dead! I won't let this be real!" Two of the doctors lead me out of the room and close the door. I was screaming and crying, throwing a complete tantrum.

My hands hit the door before I can stop them. The sobs escaping me as I crouch down and stay there, my head leaning against the door. I can't believe it. I don't want to believe it. I can't.

I hear footsteps running up to me.

"Kiriko?!" Akamine rushes up to me. "What happened?"

"She's gone." I say through choked sobs. "She's fuckin dead!" Akamine doesn't react or scold me for my language. She leans against the wall before sliding down it. Neither of us try to comfort one another. I look up at her to see the tears steaming down her face. She isn't making any sort of noise, and even if she was, it would be completely drowned out by the noises I'm making.

I'm forced to move out of the way as nurses and doctors leave the room. I'm sat on the floor for so long. Neither me or Akamine move. The tears dry and I'm just left with an aching numb sensation.

It's like my tears have been completely used up, like there's nothing left in me. The squeeking wheels of the medical bed catch my attention and I watch in horror as her body is moved away. A doctor follows the bed and says they want to talk with Akamine.

I stand up and just stare at her face. She doesn't look peaceful or calm like most people describe. She's just a girl whose life has been torn away from her.

And I wasn't with her to stop it.

I didn't save her. If I had just talked my way out of my apprenticeship with Endeavor then they wouldn't have gone to Hosu. Hell, if I hadn't agreed to go to U.A, none of this would have ever happened. My deal to protect her went down in flames and destroyed everything I had.

I can't believe she's gone, even though she's there, in front of me, no breath or movement, I can't believe it.

They wheel her away from me and I can't bring myself to act. To do anything. What am I meant to do? The only reason I'm here is because of her.

"Hara!" Complete shock washes though me as a very familiar voice rings out down the corridor. I turn around to see the bright ginger hair and the equally bright blue eyes I'm used to.

Something about the familiarity of the situation triggers my emotions all over again and I start sprinting and I dive into his arms.

"Hey, I got your voicemails. I came here as quick as I could. What happened?" His voice is deep through his pants, his heart rate is also raised, like he's been running.

"She's dead, Ryu." I cry as he wraps his arms around me. "She's fucking dead."

Note: to those of you that don't know (not insulting your intelligence or anything I just don't want people to be confused) the law of conservation is a science term that states energy cannot be created or destroyed. Aiko's quirk is 'energy' and I'm sure you can piece together the rest. Sorry for the angsty chapters, but that's all I've got for a short while.
